Karen Quigley, Ph.D. - Sept 7, 2022
"Why It Matters That A Brain Is In A Body" William K. Warren, Jr. Frontiers in Neuroscience Lecture 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm LPCH Auditorium Dr. Karen Quigley is Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University where she directs the Interdisciplinary Affective Science Laboratory. She is an affective scientist and biological psychologist whose basic science work examines the psychophysiological, behavioral and contextual features of affective experiences like emotion and stress. She also studies how interoception (i.e., sensory signaling from the organs of the body and use of this sense data by the brain) impacts affective experience and behavior. More broadly, her work focuses on how the body and brain together create experience and behavior. Her recent work focuses on understanding the sources of observed variation in patterns of physiological features that occur during different instances of the same emotional experience, such as when a person feels anger or fear. Contrary to common assumptions, the variation is quite large in the observed biological patterns of activity in the body and brain, even for emotional instances labeled with the same emotion word. So, the biological pattern associated with anger during one emotional instance in one person can be quite different from the pattern observed in the same person within a different context or the pattern observed in another person. This suggests that studies of emotion need to go beyond the laboratory and sample a much broader range of emotional instances in everyday life. To enable this work, Dr. Quigley innovated a new biologically-triggered experience sampling methodology that enhances the efficiency of sampling multimodal data, including self-reports, physiology, behavior, and context, which can be used in data-driven models to better understand what features of a person or the context serve to structure the variation. In her applied research, Dr. Quigley assesses affective experience and health outcomes in those experiencing negative functional impacts after major life events like a military deployment or in community members who have experienced a local terrorism event. In other applied work, she uses health technology, including a person’s own physiological data, to motivate a patient to make behavior changes with the goal of improving sleep, physical activity, and pain. Dr. Quigley is a former president of the Society for Psychophysiological Research, and a Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science, the Academy of Behavioral Medicine Research, and an inaugural Fellow of the Society for Psychophysiological Research. She is a former Associate Editor for Psychophysiology, where she is currently a consulting editor. She also serves on the editorial boards of Affective Science and Biological Psychology.

After receiving his undergraduate degree under the mentorship of Loren and Jean Chapman at the University of Wisconsin – Madison, he completed his graduate training with Bill Iacono at the University of Minnesota. Following the completion of his clinical internship at the VA medical center in Minneapolis, he assumed his current position in Arizona in 1992. He has published over 180 peer-reviewed scientific papers, and been the recipient of grants from the National Institutes of Health and from the National Alliance for Research in Schizophrenia and Depression to fund his research. He has received numerous awards for his research, including the Distinguished Early Career Award from the Society for Psychophysiological Research and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Research Prize, as well as numerous awards for his teaching including the Graduate College and Professional Education Teaching and Mentoring Award, and designation as University Distinguished Professor. He is a Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science, and a past-president of the Society for Psychophysiological Research. His research interests encompass several areas, but he is interested broadly in identifying neural systems that place people at risk for emotional disorders. Using electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging, his work identifies patterns of brain activity that may underlie depression and related disorders, and that may be promising targets for intervention. Most recently, he has focused specifically on two lines of work: 1) investigating transcranial ultrasound as a neuromodulation approach to alter emotional well-being with the ultimate aim to provide a novel treatment for depression; 2) assessing the potential utility of guided psilocybin experience to alter brain network activity and improve symptoms and function in obsessive-compulsive disorder.

"From Visceral Signals to Subjectivity" William K. Warren, Jr. Frontiers in Neuroscience Lecture 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm VIRTUAL LECTURE - ZOOM LINK BELOW https://us06web.zoom.us/j/86347284258 Meeting ID: 863 4728 4258 Passcode: 195226 Dr. Tallon-Baudry aims at understanding how brain activity turns into conscious experience. During her early career (PhD in Lyon, France; post-doc in Bremen, Germany), she revealed the existence of induced gamma-band oscillations in humans and showed their role in feature-binding as well as other cognitive visual functions (attention, short-term memory, learning, and consciousness), developing a strong expertise in human electrophysiology (MEG, EEG, iEEG). In 2002, she moved to Hôpital Pitié-Salpêtrière in Paris where, over 10 years, she went through all stages from independent young researcher to director of both a large research group and of a brain imaging facility, developing her managerial skills. Having unexpectedly discovered a double dissociation between spatial attention and visual consciousness, both at the neural and behavioral level, she began to reconsider the nature of visual consciousness and concentrated on subjective, rather than executive, aspects of consciousness. This led her to move to Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, in 2012 to focus again on basic research. She created a new cognitive neuroscience group, where they develop and test the hypothesis that the central monitoring of interoceptive signals underlies subjectivity. Learning objectives:
